Very cool setup Arvid!

[@antoniopepe]

very clear walkthrough. thx.

[@ewgenij6991]

hey Arvid, I love your tutorials and your personable manner :) Your workflow is very understandable and good organized. The houdini tutorials are particularly valuable to me. Liebe Grüße aus Berlin ;)

[@vladyslavlavrenov9167]

[@MrSLuedke]

Your are nutz buddy! :D great tutorial

[@arvidurs]

Heeey! Thanks bud :)

[@Bachosokhadze]

hi pls make tutorial about how to render full ocean with waitewater and other details in houdini and arnold pls pls pls !!!

[@buchiramulu]

This is just Amazing...!!

[@robertlangnickel6911]

Hey Arvid, nice tutorial! i have a little tip for you to simplify your loop fpr the drips: instead of carve use a wrangle for prims with this code: #include adjustPrimLength(0, @primnum, @perimeter, @perimeter*@dist); So you can adjust multiple lines at once! ;) dist and perimeter must be prim attribs. cheers rob

[@robertlangnickel6911]

forgot to mention: with this code u dont need a for-loop

[@arvidurs]

Hey Robert! Yeah, thanks so much for this - I'll try to implement this!

[@raneemFX]

really helpful as a starter in Houdini. Can I use Primitive SOP rather than MOPs explode Sop. If no would you please share why

[@arvidurs]

Oh yeah, quite possible! You'd just need to separate each primitive to get a center point. (Didn't know primitive exists tbh :D)

[@raneemFX]

@@arvidurs thanks for the reply💖

[@jquintero462]

Hello, could you at least tell us where you got the FBX models to follow along?

[@arvidurs]

it's a scan stl from 3d printing websites.

[@thevfxguy_tvg]

Nice tutorial but sometimes i don't even know what I'm doing

[@papaBoogy]

Great tutorial. Just wondering why haven’t you use gpu renderer on this?

[@arvidurs]

I don’t see a huge improvement using gpu - definitely possible though

[@manojlogulic4234]

Amazing stuff, i have few questions. Where did you learn Houdini? Is Houdini mutithreded? Dose Arnold in Houdini work better on GPU compared to Maya? Thanks!

[@arvidurs]

I learned Houdini by watching videos on YT most of it. Not all the nodes support multi threading but most of them do. GPU is still very clunky I'd recommend CPU with htoa

[@manojlogulic4234]

@@arvidurs Thank you 🍻

[@Aaron-dp9zk]

Arnold so pretty.

[@Adenomamusic]

PLS do your videos with Rs too!

[@arvidurs]

Redshift yeah?

[@Adenomamusic]

@@arvidurs yeah!

[@m0nk3yl0v3r]

"simple" ... (!)

[@arvidurs]

compared to other houdini tutorials :D

[@AndreiTheBadger]

In redshift, what would be the equivalent of user data float ? I;ve tried all the user data nodes and nothing displays the black and white spectrum.. just black and white. Thank you.

[@AndreiTheBadger]

From the volumevop onwards, nothing worked. amazing.

[@arvidurs]

anything I can help with or are you just in a bad mood?

[@AndreiTheBadger]

@@arvidurs Yes to both questions. I've spent so much time trying to recreate this only to glitch at the end. I was livid. Basically nothing happens in the volume trails and i think that has something to do with volumevop. I see the trails but they dont change when i play with the parameters in the volumevop.

[@arvidurs]

@@AndreiTheBadger feel free to hop on the discord server and we can have a look together :)

[@AndreiTheBadger]

the export bind... what were the settings. ? God, i hate this walkthrough type of tuts.

[@arvidurs]

sorry, I'm not God, and I didn't want to make you hate this video. it's meant as a quick overview about the technique. If you really really want this, you can get the whole file and a lot more from my patreon www.patreon.com/posts/41508238
